.Synopsis
    Perform offline domain join in c#/PowerShell without djoin.exe
.Description
    Perform offline domain join in c#/PowerShell without djoin.exe
    This will create an object in active directory and output the blob needed to join the machine offline

    If needed, you can use the function New-DjoinFile to recreate the file consumed by djoin.exe
    https://github.com/lazywinadmin/PowerShell/tree/master/TOOL-New-DjoinFile
.Parameter machinename
    Specify the machinename
.Parameter domain
    Specify the domain name
.Parameter credential
    Specify credential
.Parameter machineaccountou
    Specify the organizational unit in Active Directory where the machine account should be placed.
.Parameter dcname
    Specify the Domain Controller
.Example
    $MyAccount = 'MyDomain\MyAccount'
    $Passw = ConvertTo-SecureString -String '<SecretPassword>' -AsplainText -Force
    $Credential = New-Object -TypeName System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -ArgumentList ($MyAccount,$Passw)
